CALL FOR RESEARCH PROPOSALS Grant funds are available from the Perennial Plant Association (PPA) to be used for research. Although our basic criterion for research proposals is a direct relationship to the herbaceous perennial industry, preference will be given to quality proposals for research on slow release fertilizers, height reduction by growth regulators, techniques to increase bud (eye) production, propagation techniques, and invasive species. The grants are available to any recognized non-profit entity in the United States or Canada. No overhead will be paid to the institution on these grants. Although the researcher may wish to publish the results in a refereed journal first, the grant recipient is expected to make a written report of the findings to the PPA. The written report will be published, all or in part, in Perennial Plants, the PPA journal. When results are published elsewhere, mention must be made of support by the Perennial Plant Association. Proposals will be evaluated by the PPA Research Committee. Applicants will be notified of the decisions by July 31,2005. Awards will be mailed to recipients during August 2005. Proposals must be postmarked on or before June 15,2005. Send
10 copies of the proposal to: |
